We spoke to the cast of Hulu's new comedy, Reboot, about what it's like filming a show "within a show," making fun of the industry, and what it was like on set. It was really hard to keep from laughing as the actors talked about what their characters will go through this season and also when they make fun of each other. We interviewed Judy Greer, Johnny Knoxville, Keegan-Michael Key, Krista Marie You, Calum Worthy, Rachel Bloom, and Paul Reiser. Keegan-Michael Key talks going in depth with his character and how much fun it was to play in this world, Judy and Johnny talk jokes and backstory, Krista and Calum discuss their excitement for fans to see the show while Rachel and Paul make fun of each other while talking storylines.
Reboot is about the dysfunctional cast of an early 2000s hit sitcom, Step Right Up, who must face their unresolved issues and navigate a vastly different media and entertainment environment when a young writer successfully pitches a reboot of their show.
